Picking up where Wednesday in the Square left off downtown, Wednesdays on the Point is proving to be quite a success!
While I missed the first two weeks of performances, we were able to get out to Aunt Leni's Cafe this week for the third installment of the street concerts in Algiers Point. The sidewalk tables were filled and the street was lined with the lawn chairs of the spectators. Like any other function in Algiers, it was filled with familiar faces and lots of great local music, with the entertainment provided this week by the Marc Stone Band (turns out that Westbank Mike, who was also scheduled to perform, is on vacation this week).
With the band playing, the food cooking and the drinks flowing, we were caught up in saying hello to everyone and catching up with friends we had not seen in awhile. Not a bad way to spend a summer evening...
Where but New Orleans will you find a street party on a Wednesday afternoon?
Next weeks event will be held right down the street at Tout de Suite Cafe, on the corner of Alix and Verret Streets, from 5:30 to 8:30pm...hope to see you there!

I looked around to see if we had any street parties going on in Fort Worth last night and I came up with nothing.
I really do love where you live.
Lisa- is that Mel Gibson singing?
LISA - The only time that I've seen so many people partying on a Wednesday afternoon is outside of Wrigley Field in Chicago, and in college. It looks like a great way to spend the day.
Amanda, me too :)
Jeremy, LOL! No.
Adam, it was a wonderful time and one of those unique NOLA events.
Lisa, what a great way to spend a Wednesday afternoon, good food, good friends and great music!!! :)
Geez, I'm getting homesick -- time for a trip to Louisiana!!! :)
Judi, there are 3 or 4 more weeks left in the series...come on down!
Lisa, I'd love to, but have several closings and a new listing coming up. Plus my daughter's wedding in a month!!!
Again with the partying in the streets - I like your town atmosphere.
Judi, congratulations to the bride and groom!
Georgina, we just can't contain ourselves :)
Whewww, after the wedding, I'll be ready to relax and party a little. You might want to keep an eye and ear open for AR Gathering plan in Louisiana sometime the first half of next year -- you will be expected to be there!!! :)
